This week’s email is brought to you by Fuse Project & Their Lip Sync Battle.

Solar Eclipse Email Delay

Sorry for the email delay, but we’re currently a bit far away.

We wanted to be in the path of totality for the eclipse (plus, it’s our 10 year wedding anniversary).

Don’t worry, it was partly cloudy here as well, so we feel you 😜

$962 Raised for Make-A-Wish Foundation
We’re Getting There! Can You Help?

On April 20, we’re doing a 26.3-mile hike (in one day!) 🥾🌄🥾 to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation — our goal is to help grant wishes for children with critical illnesses.

Our goal is to make this a “Team Mobile Rundown” thing, and we want you to play a role!!

A big thanks to the donors below for making it happen!

Clay and Belinda McClinton / Ruth McKee / John Bedsole / Stephanie G / David C / Clarence M / Mike Ward’s Liberty Safes / Marjie W

We’d love to add you to the list.

Donate here to join the Rundown giving crew!
